Interesting fact
The 1 Gold Ecu "Klinkaart" coin from the Duchy of Brabant (Belgian States) is interesting because it was minted during the reign of Philip the Good, who was a prominent figure in European history. Philip the Good was the Duke of Burgundy and Count of Flanders, and he played a significant role in shaping the political and cultural landscape of the region during his rule (1431-1434). The coin's design, which features an image of Philip the Good, is a testament to his enduring legacy.
